RFK Jr justifies firing scientists on the CDC’s vaccine advisory committee due to “conflicts of interest.”

Yet RFK Jr made almost $100K a year from anti-vax lawsuits and almost $90K a month from his anti-vax nonprofit.

The person with the biggest conflict of interest at HHS is the one leading it.

Sending 500 Marines to #LA?

This is silly. #Marines from 29 Palms “patrolling” LA streets with rifles, Machine guns in Amphibious vehicles?

They will have ZERO law enforcement power.

This is #Trump’s Geriatric Birthday Parade - West Coast Edition.

One of the first things the #Trump #regime did when they came into power in January was fire the inspector generals and the military’s top #JAG officers — the lawyers — who would have told them that #Marines can NOT be used for civilian law enforcement.

Gov. Gavin Newsom responds to Mike Johnson who this morning said the governor “ought to be tarred and feathered.”

Q: The president said that if he were Tom Homan he would arrest Gavin Newsom. Do you believe Newsom should face consequences in a legal way?

MIKE JOHNSON: Um, that's not my lane. I'm not gonna give you legal analysis on whether Gavin Newsom should be arrested. But he ought to be tar and feathered, I'l say that.

As someone with a long career in public health, I find this alarming and enraging. Please call your representatives in Congress, especially if they sit on committees related to health (particularly the Senate HELP Committee). Let’s make Republican Senators regret that they voted for #rfkjr , who is becoming a mass murderer. There’s no other word for it. And make them act.

I am over collecting hot peppers. I bring in handfuls every day. I don't know how much salsa two people can eat. It did turn out well though. Hot, but not too hot for us.

Report: Pentagon concerned that Trump's "Love Thy Dictator" parade while troops are in a major U.S. city could backfire big time

I recall...

The US Coast Guard made over 1000 helicopter rescues during #HurricaneKatrina.
The US Marines never made it

I’m old enough to remember when Hillary Clinton saying half of the MAGA movement were deplorables made news for months.

And always worth noting: one can love Israel and criticize these ministers just as one can love the Palestinian people and criticize Hamas just as one can love the United States and criticize Trump. Be wary of anyone who uses the individual to stereotype the group.

Durbin to Bhattacharya: "I can't understand it. I disagree with this administration on so many things. But this is the one that really gets to me personally. To think that this nation would walk away from medical research. For God's sake ... your budget requests a 38% cut to the National Cancer Institute."

Democratic Senator Chris Murphy
tweeted:

“Important to remember that Trump isn’t trying to heal or keep the peace.

He is looking to inflame and divide.

His movement doesn’t believe in democracy or protest
– and if they get a chance to end the rule of law they will take it.

None of this is on the level.”
